Croatia declared independence in June 1991, and this note was among the first issued by the newly established Croatian National Bank — part of a series rushed into production before the country had fully separated from the Yugoslav monetary system. Tumba Bruk, the Swedish security printer with roots going back to the mid-eighteenth century, handled the work, giving the series a production pedigree that outclassed Croatia's immediate political circumstances.
Zlatko Jakuš designed and engraved the note himself — a relative rarity, both roles handled by one person.
